You can check out my personal weblog. I have written about the Polur Sri Lakshmi Narasimha temple:

Sri Vaishnava Network: Polur Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Temple

Team,

I have the following questions on Pitrus..

I have the following questions to you. I have requested for membership in vaideekam group but is still pending administrative commitee approval and hence asking you through this email message.

1) Can I perform the various tharpanam and related activities for my maternal grandfather? He had two sons actually and due to internal family conflicts they are neglecting his tharpanam which I percieve like a strong moral violation.

2) Can I perform the various tharpanam and related activities for my paternal grandfather? My dad converted himself to a different religion and because of this got stopped about ten years ago.

3) How many levels would pitru shapam traverse?

4) What are the ways in which pitru shapam can be eliminated or done prayschittam to?

5) How do you exactly define pitru shapam?

6) Because of these my sister's wedding is getting challenged. Can you guide me on these situtations please?
